Even a gentle breeze can ruin the experience of a handmade smoke, but don’t tell that to Dominican cigarmaker and tobacco grower Jose Jochy Blanco, who is looking to harness the power of the wind with his new brand, La Galera Anemoi. For those who have forgotten their ancient Greek mythology (or never knew it in the first place), the Anemoi were wind gods given names that represented the cardinal direction from which their breezes came. Due to the influence that the wind could have on everyday life, the Greeks worshipped the Anemoi to a degree. Winds can also play a minor role in how well a field of tobacco grows, hence the name. La Galera Anemoi uses Dominincan tobaccos grown by Blanco for its filler and binder. The filler is a mix of Criollo 98 and Piloto Cubano grown in La Canela, while the filler is a Corojo binder from Blanco’s farm in Jacagua. These elements are covered by a dark, oily Connecticut broadleaf wrapper that Blanco says has been aging for many years. The new, regular-production brand will come in four sizes, each named after one of the Anemoi gods: Boreas (measures 4 3/4 inches by 46 ring gauge; Eurus, 5 1/2 by 48; Notos, 5 by 56; Zephyrus, 6 by 60. There is also a fifth size, Anemoi, 6 3/8 by 52, which represents the totality of the brand. The cigars will come packed in 20-count boxes, and are being rolled at Tabacalera Palma,Blanco’s cigar factory located in the Dominican Republic.

Additional information

The La Galera Anemoi Toro Cigar is a standout offering in the La Galera Anemoi line, a tribute to the powerful and diverse winds of the Dominican Republic, with each cigar in the collection named after a different wind god. The Anemoi Toro, specifically, draws its inspiration from the god of the west wind, known for his calming influence and ability to bring mild breezes. This cigar delivers a smooth yet flavorful experience, ideal for those seeking balance and complexity in a medium-bodied smoke.

Crafted by José “Jochy” Blanco and his team at Tabacalera Palma, the Anemoi Toro features a specially selected blend of Dominican tobaccos from the fertile Cibao Valley. It is finished with an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, which provides a layer of richness and depth to the smoking experience. This combination of aged tobaccos brings a unique complexity, offering rich notes of earth, spice, and leather, with a smooth undertone of coffee and cocoa.

The cigar’s construction ensures a perfect draw and even burn throughout the smoke, delivering a refined yet powerful flavor profile with every puff. The Anemoi Toro gradually evolves, revealing subtle nuances of wood and pepper, complemented by a slight sweetness in the finish. The medium-to-full-bodied profile makes it a great choice for both seasoned smokers and those looking to explore a refined smoking experience.

Overall, the La Galera Anemoi Toro is a well-rounded cigar that showcases the skill and expertise of José Blanco and his team, making it a must-try for cigar enthusiasts.
